Chapter 154 - Preliminary Agreement
Christine's sudden voice immediately caused the members of the Order to throw Wang Chixiao's offense at her slap out of the clouds, and cheered in unison, and Cecilia and several other girls couldn't hold back their tears.
Not to mention others, even Christine, who was extremely angry a moment ago, was stunned, and then her face showed an extremely ecstatic expression, obviously even the facial nerves were repaired by Wang Chixiao, and the function of displaying expressions was restored.
"I know that I have gone mad, and in theory it should be hopeless, how did you do it?"
Although her whole body was still paralyzed and unconscious, the recovery of her speech and facial expression abilities still made Christine extremely happy, and she couldn't help but ask, Wang Chixiao glanced at her, and said coldly: "Just because you can't do it doesn't mean that I can't do it, how much can a person who has practiced the evil way qigong of the side door and gone crazy know how many secrets of qigong?" ”
Wang Chixiao's words are simply a naked slap in the face and humiliation, but the form is stronger than people, especially in this situation where he sees hope, although he is arrogant but not a hot-blooded fool, Christine, although his face is flushed with anger all of a sudden, he still endures it, just closes his eyes and doesn't look at this bastard anymore.
"Don't be too happy, it's going to be a long treatment process, after all, unlike stroke paralysis, it will take at least a year for your body to fully recover, and that's still if everything goes well."
Wang Chixiao poured another basin of cold water on her and said, "In addition, all these treatments are only aimed at your body itself, not including the dantian. ”
Christine was stunned. Of course, she knew what this meant, and then there was a glimmer of hope in her eyes and said, "You must have a way to help me repair my dantian and avoid letting me scatter my skills." Is that right? ”
"There's a way, but you can't accept it, and I can't guarantee that it will work."
Wang Chixiao shook his head a little helplessly, this was really a method that he had just thought of that might help Christine keep his dantian true qi, but ...... It's very undisciplined, he doesn't think that the arrogant Spanish wild girl in front of him can obediently agree to accept it.
"What is the solution? No matter what the cost, as long as I can do it, I will definitely accept it! ”
Things have come to this point. She also put aside her previous pride, and couldn't help but start to take the initiative to plead, if there was no hope, it didn't matter. But now that she sees hope, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, she is not willing to give up.
Her Heavenly Hell ability itself is actually not too strong, but when combined with her own martial arts, it can produce a qualitative change. The power of each other has skyrocketed. Similar to Wang Chixiao's ability combination, this is the basis for her to become an eighth-order powerhouse at such a young age, and once she loses her true qi, her strength will plummet, and she is absolutely unwilling to let herself become a waste.
"It's too early to say this, let's get your mobility back up first."
Wang Chixiao didn't answer positively, and said, "Since your recovery period will be very long, then I can't stay here for a long time, so you have to follow me back to Norfolk Naval Base." ”
His appetite made Christine itch with anger. But now she really doesn't have much negotiating capital, so she has to say: "It's no problem for me to go to Norfolk with you." Anyway, I can't do anything now, it's just the Knights......"
She suddenly realized something, and her eyes froze, "This is your real purpose, you also want to annex the Knights of Santiago!" ”
Yes, as long as Wang Chixiao and these people leave, what should the Apocalypse Council do if they come to make trouble again, and the only way to do it is to find another backer to deter.
The Knights of San Diego are absolutely first-class in small and medium-sized Awoken organizations, but they can't compete with a huge force like the Apocalypse Council, and they are roughly similar to the Nightcrawlers in this regard, in fact, even when she was still strong, didn't she dare to refuse the invitation of the Apocalypse Council, so she had to deceive herself with a so-called "cooperation"?
And the Second Fleet of the Navy behind Wang Chixiao, the power of Hua Qingyi, the "Empress of the Sea", is definitely even greater than that of the Apocalypse Council, could it be that the Knights of San Diego, who are bent on restoring their glory, will not be able to avoid the sad fate of being annexed in the end?
"It doesn't matter if you want to understand it that way, you should have thought of it when you sent someone to me for help."
Wang Chixiao said frankly: "To tell you the truth, the person who took a fancy to your knights was not me, but the empress behind me, we have an old saying in the East called 'the pupper is not guilty, but he is guilty', and you can also understand the thoughts, now the knights are the puffers, and you are the bi, who called you an eighth-order powerhouse?" Don't use means to control your subordinates, just listen to your promises with red lips and white teeth, who believes it, what is the guarantee? ”
What he said was a bit of a curse, Christine's face became extremely ugly for a while, and she muttered: "It turns out that I caused them, I shouldn't be so competitive, I don't want to have power, I want to show myself......"
"But if you don't have great power, you can't say that in some conflict, your Knights will be wiped out entirely, and it seems that the battle you became famous for was another Awakened organization trying to annex you, right? And if you want to avoid this, then it's better to be an ordinary person with no power, but in this case, you may be wiped out by a certain awakened person with a tyrannical temperament at any time...... So don't regret it there, there is no perfect fate, the path is your own choice, since you have chosen, don't regret it. ”
Wang Chixiao talked eloquently, at this time, if he lit a cigarette and put on a pair of eyes to push it, it was estimated that he would look like a scheming person, while Christine was confused and seemed to be deeply shocked.
"Forget it, I'm just a messenger, so let the people who want to solicit you talk to you directly."
Wang Chixiao sighed and beckoned to Jim outside the room, "You should bring the communication equipment to contact His Excellency the Minister directly, bring it to me to use." ”
Jim hurriedly walked in, and then pulled out a pocket-sized military tactical computer and a special communication device from the tactical backpack behind his back and connected it to the table next to it.
Turn on your computer. It was connected to the Second Fleet's military satellite communication channel with a special password, and after several layers of passwords and authentication, it was finally connected to the computer in the Admiralty's office. Soon, Hua Qingyi's beautiful and tranquil face like the eldest sister next door appeared on the screen.
"Chixiao, contact me so soon, it seems that things are going well."
Hua Qingyi's voice sounded, and Christine's originally confused gaze suddenly lit up, not only because this was the personal voice of the legendary "Empress of the Sea", but more importantly, she heard the cordiality between Hua Qingyi's words and Wang Chixiao, which was definitely not the tone of superiors to subordinates.
"It did go well. Minister, however, I think it would be better for you to discuss some specific matters with Miss Christine yourself, after all, you are authoritative. Only the assurances you make yourself will be believed. ”
Wang Chixiao adjusted the position of the computer camera so that Christine's face could be reflected in it, and then he gestured to Zeratul and Jim, and the three of them left the room, leaving the place completely to Christine.
The members of the Knights Outside had mixed feelings. The other faction within the Order, led by Aquino, has now been wiped out. The people here are all cronies who are very loyal to Christine, they all heard the conversation between Wang Chixiao and Christine before, and they also have some understanding of their current situation, but they suddenly encountered so many changes in a short period of time, and they didn't know what to do for a while, so they could only wait for Christine's final decision.
In addition, their feelings about Wang Chixiao and others are also a little complicated, both grateful and annoyed, and a little afraid and helpless. At the moment, they gathered together, whispering constantly, sometimes louder, obviously arguing over something.
For their dispute, Wang Chixiao was not interested in dealing with it at all. He didn't even have the interest of Yun Gong eavesdropping on Hua Qingyi's conversation with Christine, but instead sat on a chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, the true qi in his body was running all the time, and the true qi was automatically generated in an endless stream between breaths and breaths, and only when the qigong cultivation reached its peak would it have such a state, and as long as it was guided a little, the efficiency of both rest and true qi recovery would be greatly increased.
"Wang ...... Thank you very much, Mr. Wang. ”
A somewhat timid female voice came from in front of him, Wang Chixiao opened his eyes, and saw Cecilia, who had been hiding from him, standing in front of him, from her hand grasping her clothes and her somewhat flushed face, it could be seen that she was still very nervous.
"You saved the Grand Master, and you are the benefactor of all of us in the Knights, and we are all very grateful to you."
As if trying to adjust her mood, Cecilia continued, "If possible, I would like you to tell the Grand Master that she has done enough for us, so please don't sacrifice for us in the future, and we don't want to see her do that." ”
"Why don't you go and tell her yourself?"
"No...... I can't, Grand Master won't listen to me. ”
"Then you think she'll listen to me? I'm an outsider, even her enemy, and the fact that she ended up like this today is largely caused by me, otherwise she would have been able to hold on for a while longer to have another attack even if she went mad. ”
Wang Chixiao laughed and said meaningfully: "All the choices are made by Christine herself, even if she sacrifices for you, she is willing, so you don't have any psychological burden, some people are born with that kind of queen character, they think that they are born to carry everything, and they are really not awkward and uncomfortable." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Sarah, as if sensing his gaze, and Sarah immediately looked up at him, and then looked away a little weakly.
"It looks like the negotiations inside are over."
As soon as Zeratu, who had been lying at the door of the laboratory, spoke, he heard Christine's voice coming from inside: "Wang Chixiao, please come in." ”
I don't know what the negotiation will be, but with Sister Hua's ability, Christine, a stupid girl, should be pitted very badly.
Muttering in his heart, Wang Chixiao walked into the laboratory again, but saw Hua Qingyi on the computer screen nodding at him with a smile on her face, and said, "I have already negotiated all the conditions, and the preliminary agreement has been reached, Chixiao, you can bring Christine back." ”
After speaking, she didn't explain anything and closed the program directly, and Wang Chixiao's eyes swept towards Christine. found that although she couldn't move, her face was full of angry expressions, and she was really pitted.
Hua Qingyi, who seems to be the big sister next door, is definitely the ultimate boss who eats people and does not spit out bones, Wang Chixiao firmly believes in this. And his intuition has always been very accurate, and he hasn't made a mistake so far, and the only estimate that can fight with Hua Qingyi is Natalie, Melissa is worse, not to mention the stupid girl in front of him.
"Now you're satisfied? Hmph, the Knights and I will sell ourselves to you from now on! ”
Christine said hatefully, and that gritted teeth was extremely cute. is completely different from the decisiveness of her previous meeting with Wang Chixiao for the first time, the woman is indeed a creature with many different faces.
"Well, what kind of agreement have you reached with Your Excellency the Minister?"
As soon as I looked at Christine's appearance, I knew that she must have been pitted a lot. At that moment, Wang Chixiao injected a vital true qi into her body as a comfort, although it had no practical effect, but it made Christine's body feel a little bit temporarily, and this was enough to make her almost burst into tears with excitement.
Some things don't realize how precious they are until you lose them. Even the most basic sensations of the body.
"She extended the period of time I served you in the agreement. I originally promised three years, but she forced me to change to ten years, hmph, what's the difference between this and selling my body? I never thought that the famous 'Empress of the Sea' would be such a person who took advantage of people's danger! ”
After enjoying the feeling for a moment, Christine spoke, and Wang Chixiao heard her grinding teeth: "In addition, there is the Knights of San Diego, they will also become a special field unit under the Second Fleet of the Navy, and the service time is also ten years!" Damn, just get out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den. Hopefully the Second Fleet will be better than the Council of the Apocalypse. Tell you, if you dare to use my knights as cannon fodder. I'd rather kill myself to atone for my sins after breaking my oath than let you go! ”
Sure enough, it was very miserable.
But first the Night Walkers, and now the Knights of San Diego, Hua Qingyi seems to be doing the same thing as the Apocalypse Council, gathering and recruiting those small and medium-sized biological weapons groups and Awakened organizations, what kind of plan does she have?
Wang Chixiao couldn't help but groan a little.
In fact, Christine's choice to let the San Diego Knights join the Second Fleet is not a wrong choice, like the current situation, they must choose to take sides, and it is basically impossible to be as independent as before, and the power of the Second Fleet is at least above the Apocalypse Council, and it is a regular government army organization, and after taking refuge, it will also get military status, which is much better than following the Apocalypse Council to be an extreme racist.
This can be regarded as a kind of helplessness of the weak, Christine can only defect to the Second Fleet if she wants to avoid being liquidated by the Apocalypse Council, there is no other choice, in fact, she is destined to give in to Hua Qingyi from the beginning, as for the ten-year service period...... Ten years later, if they can really get out of Hua Qingyi's control, it will be unless the "Empress of the Sea" is brain-dead.
Perhaps Christine herself knows this, but she just doesn't want to admit it.
Then Christine called the thirteen knights of the Knights in and personally informed them of the agreement between herself and Hua Qingyi, and the performance of the knights was very calm, and a few of them were younger, such as Franco, and even showed excitement on their faces.
Since it is necessary to choose a backer, compared to an extremist organization like the Apocalypse Council, they are naturally more willing to choose the Second Fleet, Hua Qingyi's prestige is not covered, with her protection, the Knights will be truly safe, and they will have a broader future, young people are not like those old people who have experienced aberrant wars, they have dreams and ambitions, and they don't want to live in isolation in this Pyrenees all the time.
Their expressions were all seen by Christine, and she could only sigh softly in her heart, she had always tried her best to maintain the independence of the Knights, but there were many provocations from many organizations before, wanting to annex them and seize the Knights' estates, and then the strong pressure of the Apocalypse Council forced her to compromise, and now it is the navy...... I just hope that I won't regret this choice.
Said to leave but of course can't leave right away, the Knights still have a mess to deal with here, Christine has accumulated a lot of things during the time she has lost her ability to speak, and there are also many henchmen of the Apocalypse Council in the towns to which the Knights belong to that need to be cleaned up.
Although Christine is not yet capable of action, she has a clear mind and commands, but she has everything in her heart while lying on the bed, and the orders issued are clear, concise and effective, Wang Chixiao who watched it admired in her heart, she was really a strong woman, but it was a pity that she met Hua Qingyi, who was stronger than her, and she could only be pitted.
In the past few days when Christine has been dealing with the affairs of the Knights, Wang Chixiao and the others have not been idle, the naval base has received an order from Hua Qingyi, and sent engineering troops to the Pyrenees area, preparing to officially transform this antique Knights' territory into a secret military base.
A few days later, the affairs were roughly completed, and Christine, who had a few entourages, finally boarded the plane to Norfolk with Wang Chixiao and them, while Jim was left behind in the Knights as a liaison officer, which Jim strongly opposed but to no avail, no way, who called him the most talented leader among Tekes and several others, if he didn't stay, would he let Sarah stay?
